Was Spiders In Sheffield too on the nose, Chibnall? If there is one episode that is annoying to look back on from this series, it is the one with Chris Noth, particularly for what was revealed of him last year but also…

Does anyone else want to talk about America’s racism problem? No, just me. So for those that don’t know, Rosa Parks is a woman who sat on a bus, and if Chibnall wrote this episode alone, that is all you’d learn. The…

 Two episodes in, and we’re into Chibnall’s crap writing. “The Ghost Monument” is one of those episodes that tried to do the scale of Frank Herbert or James S.A. Corey with the writing ability of a dog. There certainly was a desire…

Still, with no in-series competition coming close, “The Woman Who Fell to Earth” is the most-watched modern episode of Doctor Who since the show’s return and the highest peak since “City of Death” in 1979. Jodie Whittaker’s run has been lambasted time and…

“Yes, but what do you mean, ‘one?'” I can’t help but admit that Moffat’s final story in Doctor Who is very underwhelming, and generally, gives credence to those that criticized his work overall. On a personal preference, I think he did some fantastic writing…

Oh yay, the episode with an empire finding its way across the stars, I wonder how I could be bored by this? Possibly by the fact I’d completely forgotten this and Rona Munro’s “The Eaters of Light” existed, or maybe it is…

“Why have you got a woman locked in a vault?” Well, Bill, first off, some of us enjoy having a woman locked up in a vault. Secondly, no officer, I don’t have a blonde woman in a vault. We’ve gotten to Toby…

Since we’re pretending there are real-world politicians in the Doctor Who universe for cheap jokes about being orange, could we not have at least had someone pretend to be Kofi Annan, Ban Ki-moon, or even António Guterres? Then again, Peter Harness did fail to get…
